Atom Heart Mother

Total running time 30 mins 24 secs

Being from cassette and in stereo this was once commonly thought to be a different recorder but is in fact the same as the one available on the LP bootleg 'M-502'.

Generally this recording sounds really nice but it does have some downsides. There is an odd noise for 2 seconds at 3 mins 48 secs and quite a lot intermittent distortion, for example. Perhaps both could be fixed.

My cassette was from a German trading contact back in 2000. The concert was taped by the N brothers from Hamburg using a Uher Report reel to reel and two Sennheiser microphones at high speed.
